Winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Dayton). They put the hurt on the Linden Tigers with a sharp 25-0 victory on Monday. The high-flying hitting performance was a huge turnaround for the Bulldogs considering their two-run performance the game before.
Chris Ramirez was a major factor no matter where he played. On the mound, he didn't allow a single earned run and allowed only two hits while striking out six over four innings pitched. Ramirez was also big at the plate, going 2-for-3 with two runs, two RBI, and one double. He is becoming a predictor of Dayton's success: when he posts at least two runs the team is 2-1 (and 8-11 when he doesn't).
In other batting news, Frank Dasti and Mikey Corea did most of the damage at the plate: Dasti got on base in all five of his plate appearances with five RBI, three runs, and one stolen base, while Corea got on base in all four of his plate appearances with four runs, two stolen bases, and two RBI. Those five RBI gave Dasti a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Patrick Ferguson, who went 1-for-3 with two stolen bases, three runs, and one RBI.
Dayton always had someone on base and finished the game having posted an OBP of .707. That's the best OBP they've posted all season.
Dayton's win was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 10-12. The home victories came thanks in part to their hitting performance across that stretch, as they averaged 11.5 runs over those games. As for Linden, their defeat dropped their record down to 5-16.
Coming up, Dayton will take on South Plainfield at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Linden does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
